22.01.2022 Wildlife update: The animal catcher came back today with the warmer weather and has not been able to find anything. Based on his expertise, he feels that it was more than likely a whip snake based on the description (They are virtually harmless, though a bite can be painful) and it would have moved on (schools are usually too noisy for snakes). However we will continue to monitor and be vigilant and educate our students on wildlife safety.

14.01.2022 Dear Parents/Caregivers Please note that the current advice from NSW health is that parents/carers should not be coming on to school grounds. However, given that both school gates are on a busy road, we feel that closing the gates to parents poses a greater risk of injury from cars and also does not encourage social distancing. To keep our school safe, we ask that all parents do the following: Avoid coming on to school grounds where possible. Drop off and pick up student...s quickly. Please try to keep moving: Avoid long conversations. Ensure physical distancing. Currently the school is operating in line with the following advice from NSW Health. Students to be kept in stage groups where possible. Parents and students NOT to attend if unwell. Students and staff will need to provide a copy of a negative COVID-19 test result before being permitted to return to school. No interschool activities. School assemblies will continue to be recorded and shown in class. No group singing, chanting or playing of instruments. No graduations, transitions, camps, excursions, orientations, gala days or ceremonies. Parent teacher meetings or discussions to occur online or over the phone. Thank you for your continued support! Mick Kelly Principal
